It has to be tough to try and develop for the future when you feel so much is riding on the present game.  I was hoping to see more MCW but with the start of this game you could tell it was not going to be a cake walk for the 'Cuse.  The way the game started it took any developmental minutes for MCW off the table.
 
This game needed to be won by SU.  The BE title was/is still in question.  A loss here and the whole number one seed and Pitt/Boston could easily be derailed.  This game, in its own right, had a lot of meaning for SU not to lose.
 
I'm hoping JB can stick with the starting of Rak.  There is obviously a big difference between Rak and CJ (and even JS).  If he doesn't give Rak the opening minutes, I don't think you would see him at all.  It also skews all the stats the announcers want to say about the bench.
 
I'm also hoping that in the BET, JB will make the concerted, preplanned effort to play MCW more.  Winning those games while using a deeper bench would be more beneficial.  It's four games in four nights.  There would be a lot of benefit if you can use the bench.  And, hopefully, by that time several key aspects of the NCAA will be locked up.
